What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Fated Kingdom is an experimental game that is developed by a team of two people. We have to put a lot of effort to maintain a high level of execution of all aspects of the project. We believe that Early Access will help optimize the development process by getting feedback from the players, and will also help form an active community.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Before applying for the publication of Fated Kingdom on Steam, we made a detailed work plan for Early Access, as well as a roadmap, which can be seen in the description section. We release updates every two weeks or more often if required. To implement all the planned ideas we need at least another 9 months., so a full-scale release is scheduled for Q3 2019.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The release version of Fated Kingdom will include more content than at the time of early access. First of all, this refers to the number of available cards (at least 200 pieces), character classes (there are new guild in the plans) and the game board squares. Graphics and interface will be improved, new features will also appear in accordance with the project development plan attached below.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current build of Fated Kingdom includes all the necessary functionality in order to play a full-fledged party alone or in the company of 2-4 people. Available 125 cards, 5 character classes and 61 board squares. Already released 3 major updates and 21 smaller ones The network infrastructure of the project works stably, but in the game there may still be minor flaws, which will be corrected as updates are released.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, most likely the price of Fated Kingdom will be higher after the release. We are talking about an increase of 15-30%. This is due to the fact that at the end of early access the game will have more content and features. The current price is chosen taking into account that the work on the project is not over yet. We guarantee that we will not release any DLC until a full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Early access provides ample opportunities to receive feedback. During the development of a board game with a large number of random events, we need to take into account the impressions of the players, as well as answer their questions. For the most part, we will do this in the discussion section on Steam. Based on feedback, we will adjust the development process, as well as make a road map for future updates.”

February 19

We have just updated Fated Kingdom, releasing the 19th patch. According to the development plan, we continued to develop more game content by adding new cards, squares and flavors on existing cards. Now you have 134 cards and 64 squares on the board. But the most interesting stuff is still ahead!

At the moment we are concentrating our efforts on the processing of the project network part. It is still too early to draw final conclusions, we still need time to test, but over the next two to four weeks we plan to include our achievements in a public game assembly, available in Steam Early Access.

Once this is done, we will proceed to further improve the technical architecture of the game, as well as to create content for the next major update, which is scheduled for April. It is very important for us to have time to finish work on it in the stated period, in order not to have to postpone the release of the game and thereby increase the duration of Early Access.

New Content:

3 new cards: «The Moon», «Existential Crisis» and «Butcher Knife».

A new square on the inner path - Tunnel («Throw travel dice, draw as many cards and choose one.»).

February 3

The 18th update of Fated Kingdom is already available! Three new cards have appeared, another square for the board generator, as well as a new portion of flavor notes on cards already available in the game. We are gradually approaching the declared amount of content!

In parallel with the preparation of this update, we continued to work on the technical foundation of the game. We have some progress in this direction, and over the next two weeks we plan to conduct tests. If they succeed, we will update the public build of the game.

To make sure everything is stable, we need to spend some more time on testing. This will not affect the release time of the next major update. As indicated in the roadmap on the game page, we are going to release it in April 2018. So stay tuned!

New Content:

3 new cards: «Wyvern», «The Sun» and «Lucky Horseshoe».

A new square on the inner path - Crypt («Draw 4 cards and choose Undead among them.»).

WORLD AND STORY

Fated Kingdom takes place in a dark fantasy world. The kingdom of Kinmarr was flooded with monsters, marauders and undead. Folk leaves dead fields in fear, and the whole army was defeated on the march. It seems that Fate itself wants the country to plunge into the abyss of despair and chaos.

In order to resist numerous calamities and regain control of the country, the king calls on the help of his most faithful servants. Players take on the role of members of powerful guilds, each with its own history and a set of abilities. Despite the great differences between guilds, they are all interested in saving the kingdom.

At the time of the start of the game, 10 years have passed, and during this time the guild has not succeeded in its mission. Kingdom shrank to the capital, several large cities and war-devastated lands in their environs. There is no clear plot line in the game, but on the cards you can find flavors about the world and the creatures inhabiting it.

GAMEPLAY

The main goal of the game is to hunt for hostile creatures. Players go on long patrols over the lands devastated and disfigured by war and hunt the enemies of the crown in exchange for gold and favor of the ruling dynasty.

One of the key mechanics is Fate. Its level reflects the willingness of the citizens of Kinmarr to fight with numerous misfortunes. Fate grows after each player’s defeat in battle, and when it reaches a critical value, the kingdom disintegrates under the onslaught of circumstances.

Starting with the weakest opponents, players get the first combat trophies that can be exchanged for equipment. It will increase the chance that the next patrol will be successful, and the level of Destiny will decrease. Players constantly choose how to manage available resources - coins, skill cards and items. The choice of one player can completely change the course of the whole game.

There are many ways to play Fated Kingdom. Players can agree among themselves and act together, helping each other in difficult times. This will make the game longer, but will certainly please fans of teamplay. But the rules do not force participants to play that way. And if for success you need to substitute, betray, or even deliver a sneaky stab in the back, then why not do it?

TABLETOP SANDBOX

Starting the development, we set ourselves the goal of giving the players the exiting time spent at a real gaming table with a beautiful board, with decks of cards, dices and heroes. To do this, we have implemented all the main advantages of real tabletop games, the most important of which we consider full freedom of action. The game takes place in real time, and all actions are done by its participants manually.

Unlike many other digital board games, Fated Kingdom has no control over the implementation of rules on the software side. They are clearly spelled out in the Rulebook that is available in the menu. As in real life, the players themselves must ensure that the game goes by the rules. If desired, and by mutual consent, the rules may be changed, shortened or supplemented. And, of course, at the table you can cheat. The main thing is that opponents do not notice it!
